For the two AMCAS MD/PhD essays, I feel hard-pressed to write two essays that aren't redundant or repetitive. Prompts here:
M.D.-Ph.D. Essay
If you are applying to an M.D.-Ph.D. program(s), you are required to provide two (2)
additional essays. Use the M.D.-Ph.D. essay to state your reasons for pursuing the
combined M.D.-Ph.D. degree. Your responses will only be forwarded to your designated
M.D.-Ph.D. program(s). This essay is limited to 3000 characters.
Significant Research Experience Essay
In addition to the M.D.-Ph.D. essay, you are also required to provide an essay that
describes your significant research experiences. In your essay statement, please specify
your research supervisor's name and affiliation, the duration ofthe experience, the nature
of the problem studied, and your contributions to the project. This essay is limited to
10,000 characters
I feel like I'm describing my research passions in both of them; if you read one, the other is basically a more technical explanation of the same work. How did you reconcile these two and make them constructive without being redundant?
